Style Preference Poll!

Hey guys,

I've got a character design done by 2 artists (see below), what do you guys prefer? A and/or B? 

A is done by an artist who has experience with VNs and does moe-type of anime characters, like those found in today's anime style. B is done by a mangaka artist assistant who's versatile in her works. My preference is either, as I can see how A might be popular for those who like kawaii, while B is leaning towards a little more realism or like their anime with a hint of western...

WIP! Animated Summer x Ise Scene B!

Hey folks!

Just made it in time as the last post for the month! I'm still working on this, and I see a few things that can be improved on. Maybe have a little more shove in there. Hope you guys like it! I'll move on to a bit of programming work after finishing and prepping this up. ;)

WIP! Summer + Ise Scene B Shaded

Hey folks!

Hmm... I think this orientation is better, don't you think? The other one was just cutting too much of the other parts up there.  If you're on a phone, you can easily just rotate it! 

 I made her grab some butt, but since the guy will be moving up and down (I think?) I'll have to do something about the squeeze. This is going to be a little harder to animate if it's moving from foreground to background. 

Well, I'm about to work this pic - it's all read...

WIP! Summer + Ise Scene B!

Edit: Updated image!

Hey folks!

Finally, some WIPs again. This is for one of the Summer and Ise group scenes. This is a subscene that you can switch to while playing the main sexy scene. I'll keep these subscenes simpler or shorter - whichever one makes more sense. I've rotated it but she's supposed to be upside down with her back on a couch or bed or something. Some other details are missing, but at least you guys get the drift of what's up. 

There's also another t...

WIP! What do you guys think of this?

Hey folks!

I don't usually draw guys, and I admit it's a weakness of mine. In this past few days as I look for the proper artist and workflow for me to work settle with, I'm also doing some artwork for other possible uses. I'm also interested in being able to draw dudes in different looks, builds, and age. 

Could it be... an NPC? A rival? A douche who's going to make the MC's life hell? BeerBrew simply shrugs and smiles at you.

This isn't for some otome game, but it may be for...

Guys! Do you want me to do anything with this?

Hey folks,

So the artist who I passed off a special scene to got back to me. It looks like this:

Hmm... So as the title of the post says: you guys want me to do anything with this? Right now it's still missing some parts. I'm not sure what to make of it. It's still being done. I'm not terribly excited, but I gave the artist a pretty penny anyway - a tip if you wi...

Game Dev Update! 11-20-2018

Hey folks!

Today is officially #ThankYouPatrons day. So before I get started, I'd like to take some time to express our gratitude for your support. What started to be as a hobby is now something much more. It hasn't exactly been a smooth ride for the project, but hey, we're moving along better than before. So again, on behalf of the PaperWaifu crew, thank you for staying with us!

Now, with some good news ;). The titlescreen has a new menu system in place in Summer in Springtime. My react...

Game Dev Update 11-17-2018

Hey folks!

Hope you guys are liking the new route so far! 

I'm still on that menu system. I've got the gallery and the search filter functions working in the new set up. I think I've got the difficult part sorted out. This is like trying to clear out land mines lol! Maybe I'll get this done in a week? Hopefully that. There's a quirk with this though, you can't move the list by dragging on the button, but you got to drag it by the side. A limitation I have to work with. So if there's...

Ramen no Oujisama Release Post! v0.7.5 11-14-2018

[LAST UPDATE: 11-14-2018] - Title version change.

Hey folks!

It's time for another game update! There's been a ton of Summertime WIP posts to go through before I found the last RnO update. So here we are. I'll release this to you folks first, so just tell me if you find bugs/typos and I can look into fixing them for the next patched update.

So what's in this package?  This update concludes starts the 8th character route! Audio compatible wit...

Heads Up! Ramen no Oujisama v0.7.5 Update Coming!

Hey folks!

I have the goods ;)

I'm just prepping up stuff. I'll upload and give you guys the link later. I just need to do some testing of the builds!

Guys, what's your thoughts on this?

Hey folks,

Just wondering what your thoughts are on our games' special event scenes. The graphics in particular. Is it something you look forward to?

I'm exploring/thinking about a kind of collaboration that still lets me do the special scenes, while delegating the character avatar art to different artists. I can mimic styles to a certain degree so I can attempt to match up the look of the avatar art. I can also look into working with the avatar artist to help with certain details of the...

Game Dev Update! 11-07-2018

Hey folks!

Good news! I think I'm good with the first three chapters. I'm just waiting for the last chapter that I've scheduled to do on Saturday. Hopefully, I'm able to finish rounding things up over the weekend and Monday, and prep for a release maybe Tuesday or Wednesday next week. Another thing to take note is that the online patreon build will be at least 100MB larger. It seems I left out the audio format that iOS' web browser is compatible with, so here's hoping this works.

Since I...

WIP! Summer's No.5!

Hey folks!

Just got this now! Took the artist (let's call him Zeus for now, since he wants to remain nameless) 3 weeks since I asked for the art to be split into parts. This is understandable - it'd take some time to learn how I organized things, and who'd wouldn't be intimidated seeing a ton of layers. There are parts that'll be completed when the color and shading are put in place. It's not fully f*p-able yet, but at least we know what the characters will sorta look like.

No Walnuts This Month?

 Hey folks!

I understand that it's No Nuts November. Do you guys want me to help you with that? Haha! Let's have a fun poll, if The Ramen Prince participates in No Nuts November, how would you imagine us implementing this "feature"?

This is just for laughs, of course! ;)

We're on course in development. I'm putting in the details in the special scenes already. I still don't have have chapter 4 since Sharkie's pretty busy, but I'll get this soon, so in the meantime, I can round ...

WIP! Animated Lina's Scene No.2!

Hey folks!
I made this extra big for you guys this time. So I added more hair movement here since she's supposed to be riding you (Your abdomen is f*cked). I made the rear entry set here, just in case I'm going to set the scene to have that choice with the chance to fail.
I'll also be shifting how scenes are made to how I do them in Summer in Springtime, with a bit of changes since that other one was made for looping. Other improvements from Summertime are going to be here, too. 2018-10-30 03:54:08 +0000 UTC View Post

Thinking Of New Tunes

Hey folks!

I'm listening to EXILE's Melody:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJa0jagN6IM

And I think to myself, this sounds perfect for the new route! I like the groove and the bounce to this! Alas, we can't use this, so I can only day dream about it lol!

I'm in the middle of animating stuff. I'm just relaxing to some possible music, listening for inspirations for our upcoming party girl.

WIP! Lina's Boiling Point #2!

Hey guys,

Oops... I shaded it already 0.0

So this is her *supposedly* holding you down while making you screw her. I'm thinking there might be a rear entry here, but this'll be by chance rather than a selection. Or rather, both selections have a chance of failure, flipping over to the other choice ;)

Up next, animated stuff!!!

Patreon's New Tier Posting System

Hey folks,

Just a quick update about this. This new way of posting stuff will be rolled out soon I believe, so it may affect what posts you see. Normally, a higher-tier patron will see all lower-tier posts. This new change will affect it in such a way that:

1.) The creator can now control what tier the post will be posted on. And...

2.) The patrons can now see only which tier posts they only want to be notified of. 

We'll continue posting the way we have after...

WIP! Teaser! Lina's No. 2!

Hey folks!

I got some goods! Not finished yet, so into the teaser it goes! She doesn't look too angry here huh? She's supposed to be pinning the MC down while squeezing a foot-long cheese sausage really hard.

I haven't read the next chapter yet, and I only know vague stuff about the next scene, only that it's a in "room".  I don't know which scene will go to which chapter yet.

Going to go back to prep up Chapter 3's scenario script for a bit before shading these two.

WIP! Lina's Special Scene #1

Hey folks!

 I'm back with some more goods!  

For the new $10 backers who hasn't gotten the chance to read our previous discussion about this upcoming character months back, meet Lina Nozaki, the chic Euro-Asian-African mix social media genius who's also a tsundere. More specifically, a classic tsundere.

This is going to be the first scene in the list ( don't know which will be used in what specific scene yet). The layout in-game will be different since we can't fit this p...

Ooh! A Teaser!

Hey folks!

;) I'm still in the middle of putting the scene together but at least y'all get to see something for now. I'll update this with a bigger version later!

Tsun-Tsun In Action

Hey folks!

This is gonna be open to most if not all of you guys out there. I ran this with the $10 supporters earlier, and now I think it'd be cool for the rest of you guys to read about it.

I've read the script at least up to the point of where the first special scene will be for the new character route. As some of you may already know, the kink here will be "angry sexy time". So just to give you guys some background of how this'll happen, the MC and the heroine will (probably always) f...

So... I've Checked Out The Script...

;)

...

That is all.

lol. Anyone remember this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwsmtBGBjV4

I think if you're a masochist for this kind of interaction, you'll like this. But unlike the Silent Library scene, it's a pretty girl and won't slam your plates onto the table... I've only read until Chapter 2, so I don't know the extent of this tsun-tsun will be ye...

About the 8th Character's Special Scenarios

Hey folks!

Alright, let's talk about this. Sharkie controls the flow of this and what generally happens - what leads to what. But as you already know, the spicy details on the special scenarios lie with me ;).

So the general thing we have here is "angry sex". 

I haven't read the script yet, but from what I'm getting, there's always this tension between the MC and Lina. What are you expecting when you hear "angry sex" here? Like a ton of cursing and insults being thrown? A lot ...

Ramen Route 8 - Start!

...Or was it #7? No wait, it's #8!

Hey folks!

So yes, I'm sitting here... Getting used to the Ramen's artwork again. I'm just waiting for the style to sink in.

I spent a good part of the day fixing up her character avatar files to let me directly work with them on the shading stuff later on, and right now I'm thinking up additional mouth expressions to compliment the new character's attitude.

I'll be getting my hands on the partial script hopefully later to figure things out....

Summer in Springtime v0.8.5 Builds Updated

Hey folks,

I've updated the v0.8.5 builds again. The more important thing is, if anyone's on Win10, can you give both Win32 and x64 builds a try? I've updated the wrapper. One of you guys is having a strange issue with the windows build so I'm seeing if this causes any problems or if this can solve that issue.

Summer In Springtime v0.8.5 10-14-2018 Release Post

 [LAST UPDATE: 10-14-2018]: Updated links.  

Hey folks!  

This update now lets us work with multiple artists in the game. Let me know if you have problems with this build. I won't be able to reply immediately, so I'll try to get to your problems asap.

IMPORTANT: Your old save games will not work properly with this. You'll need to start a new because of how the old scenes were added in.

Summer in Springtime Update Soon!

Hey folks,

I'll be updating the game to fix the usual bug fixes I find. Another big thing about this update is that the game can now accommodate multiple artists. This selection can be enabled using a secret code. This also means I've also brought back the old artwork, so for those who want to experience them can do so both in the gallery and the current game. The scenes for this is obviously incomplete, so the missing special scenes are totally skipped.

Our artwork will remain ...

SummerTime Direction

Hey folks,

Ah we're still on this topic lol. This isn't my artwork by the way, but it's by someone, a pro with VN art experience where it matters, who's expressed interest in an art collab. Here's the thing, this artist costs a pretty penny, not as much as LasterK, but it's getting there, but if he can take care of the artwork all the way to pre-animation stuff, I think I'm cool with this. So back to the fact that this isn't cheap and again, I'm the one caught in the friggin' middle taking all...

Final Old Summer in Springtime Artwork

Hey folks,

So it's been several days since we've released the game. I've read up on the clamor for the old art from a number patrons and non-patron fans. I totally understand why this is so. I'm also disappointed about all this, especially given the flak I have to deal with after having to push through the game to get it closer to the finish line.

I'll provide you guys with the final set of the old special scene artwork that was supposed to be animated.
